About Us

SGVU, Diploma in Engineering and Technology was started in the year 2014. SGVU Diploma in Engineering and Technology has advance curriculum that focuses more on doing than learning, hence, creating a strong link between engineers and technicians. With best-in-class labs, international exposure and, strong industry tie-ups, we create industry-ready professionals for the future. To provide thorough learning, the faculty keeps itself up to date with the latest trends and developments. We understand that our country needs skilled engineers in every sector. To meet this growing demand, the department has set up many labs with every required equipment with adequate space and skilled trainers such that the student would able to prove his/her worth successfully in the field of manufacturing, servicing, marketing, software and overall management of industries. The faculty is well equipped with labs like computer lab, language lab, sensor lab, work shop, fluid mechanics & hydraulic machine, material testing, mechanical measurement, heat power, refrigeration & air conditioning, applied mechanics & machine dynamics, CAD/CAM, simulation & modelling to teach and train the students with latest knowledge and software.

Why Diploma in Engineering from SGVU

SGVU assures that students passing out from the University should have that extra edge that keeps them a step ahead of the rest of the crowd. Not all engineering studies require normal graduation degree, a diploma proves to be more beneficent in many cases therefore the Engineering Department endeavors to be recognized globally for outstanding education and research leading to well qualified junior engineers, who are innovative, and successful in advanced fields of engineering to cater the ever-changing industrial demands and social needs. Some of the other advantages are mentioned below:

• To provide the students with academic environment of excellence, leadership, ethical guidelines and lifelong learning needed for a long productive career.
• To outreach various sectors of society through interdisciplinary programs and practical oriented approach.

The diploma courses are gaining more and more importance today due to the greater availability of government and private jobs after the completion of the courses.

Objectives

Diploma offers more practical sessions than theory which aids to improve the competency levels of students. Students will become junior engineer in the industries associated with Engineering and can also start their own new firms. They will be able to communicate proficiently and collaborate successfully with peers, colleagues and organizations. Diploma candidates are qualified to get better job opportunities, immediately after matriculation, so students will acquire necessary skills and continued learning to adopt and create new applications.

After successful completion of Diploma in Engineering course, students can either continue further Engineering studies in undergraduate level or get employment as Junior Engineers/ technicians/supervisors, CAD/CAM  programmer and junior instructors.

Diploma Engineers will be able to:-

• Basic and Discipline specific knowledge: Apply knowledge of basic mathematics, science and engineering fundamentals and engineering specialization to solve the engineering problems.
• Problem analysis: Identify and analyse well-defined engineering problems using codified standard methods.
• Design/ development of solutions: Design solutions for well-defined technical problems and assist with the design of systems components or processes to meet specified needs.
• Engineering Tools, Experimentation and Testing: Apply modern engineering tools and appropriate technique to conduct standard tests and measurements.
• Engineering practices for society, sustainability and environment: Apply appropriate technology in context of society, sustainability, environment and ethical practices.
• Project Management: Use engineering management principles individually, as a team member or a leader to manage projects and effectively communicate about well-defined engineering activities.
• Life-long learning: Ability to analyse individual needs and engage in updating in the context of technological changes.
